The Bible was written as a way to know and experience God. We are a community that values engaging regularly on God’s word to know Him better. This helps us strategically accomplish our mission as a church: To help next generations encounter and follow Jesus to bless a broken world.

Why Engage the Bible?

The Bible is foundational to the message and the life of the follower of Jesus and our church.

It is a primary place we ‘encounter’ the God of the Bible

“The Bible is not an end in itself, but a means to bring men [and women] to an intimate and satisfying knowledge of God, that they may enter into Him, that they may delight in His Presence, may taste and know the inner sweetness of the very God Himself in the core and center of their hearts.” (A.W. Tozer)

It is a catalyst to help us grow in faith and more closely follow Jesus

“If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.” (John 15:7-8)

It is a foundational way to build our lives and help us engage in God’s mission to bless a broken world

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” (Matthew 7:24)

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
